Li Cheng’s expression was fully captured by Mu Xingzhi’s keen attention, arousing his curiosity.

Li Cheng shookhis head and chuckled, “Fools who court death, it’s nothing.”

Mu Xingzhi pondered, “The Great Protector and the Third Protector are hidden in the shadows, safeguarding our sect, there shouldn’t be any trouble, right? If not, we’ll have to ask Elder Yan.”

“It’s enough,” said Li Cheng.

The direction where the people from the Artifact Sect were gathered, an elder from the Artifact Sect had a flash of surprise in his eyes, “A Profound Immortal at Complete level, able to detect my presence? Truly extraordinary!” “Elder, who is at the Complete level of Profound Immortal?” Zhuo Bu’er asked softly.

The elder waved his hand, “Don’t ask, just focus on the ceremony.”

Li Cheng was somewhat amazed, it had been three months since Zhuo Canghai’s soul scattered, and he had not expected the Artifact Sect to send a Daluo Golden Immortal down to the Lower World directly.

Those from the Lower World would generally guard within their sect, but this Daluo Golden Immortal coming to attend the ceremony surely had some ulterior motive.

However, with the people from the Ten Thousand Evils Cave lurking in the shadows, this Daluo Golden Immortal wouldn’t be able to stir up any waves.

As Shu Youlu’s master vanished into the sky, the Ascension Passage slowly dissipated, leaving only the rich power of Heaven and Earth Baptism spreading into the air.

All those attending the ceremony were greedily breathing it in, seemingly trying to absorb as much of this power as possible.

“The concentration of nature’s spiritual energy is more than twice as strong as before, and the power of baptism lingers. For a long while to come, our sect will simply be a Holy Land for cultivation.”

“Of course, I’ve heard that many more elders will be ascending soon. By then, our sect might just become an Immortal Realm here on earth!”

All members of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect were excited, this is the benefit of having someone ascend!

Mu Xingzhi and the other high-ranking members all looked at Li Cheng together. They had been hoping for their little junior uncle to ascend, yet to this day, it hadn’t happened, but indeed as he said, the benefits he left behind far outweighed ascending.

“Wiry look at me?” shrugged Li Cheng.

“Hehe, it’s nothing, just suddenly thought of some happy things,” the First Elder laughed.

“Indeed, some things, the more you think about them, the more joyous they become!” chimed in the Seventh Elder.

Li Cheng looked at everyone with a hint of suspicion, “The ceremony has ended as well, I plan to go out for a few years. If the Clan Leader of the Five Elements Elf Tribe asks, just tell him the truth.”

In these three months, not one person, including Elder Qingfeng, had returned. It was unclear whether they were still wandering outside or had gone to Devil Abyss.

“A few years? Don’t go, junior uncle, there will be many elders ascending in the next two years!” the Seventh Elder quickly said.

“Junior uncle must have important matters to tend to, so then, go early and come back soon!” said Mu Xingzhi.

Li Cheng nodded, and without waiting for anyone to say more, had already executed the Immortal Spirit Step and left, heading straight for the Misty Forest.

This time, entering the Misty Forest, there were no Demon Beasts to obstruct him, and Li Cheng went directly to the outskirts of Misty City.

“You’ve arrived, go in by yourself,” came the voice of Ao Qianchi, yet his location was entirely undetectable.

“Thankyou, senior!”

Li Cheng gave a fist salute, stepped into the Outer City and headed straight for the Inner City.

To pass through the Inner City’s gate corridor required walking fifty steps. Last time he only managed thirty steps, still twenty steps short of the end.

According to Ao Qianchi, upon stepping into the city, one would face the pressure of billions of times normal gravity. Without understanding enough of the Earth Rules, that kind of gravity was simply masochistic.

Now with three hundred Earth Rules on his person and his cultivation having improved greatly, the speed at which he comprehended the Laws in the state of Enlightenment was much faster than before.

With one thousand one hundred and one Enlightenment attempts on him, Li Cheng was confident that he could accumulate the Earth Rules to over ten thousand!

Boom, boom, boom!

Just as Li Cheng was about to attain enlightenment, a deafening rumbling suddenly erupted from outside the city!

Li Cheng quickly turned back and went to the outer city, where he saw Ao Qianchi already standing atop the city wall, hands clasped behind his back, gazing outward.

Li Cheng moved to Ao Qianchi’s side and performed a greeting before looking towards the city outskirts.

“The Bone Clan, Corpse Clan, Ghost Clan! Where did these dead spirits come from?” Li Cheng frowned.

Outside, deathly energy permeated the air, with the figures of powerful beings looking like skeletons advancing step by step, including human skeletons and demon beast skeletons. Following behind were rotting corpses, with wisps of ghostly shadows drifting above.

The flame flickering within the eye sockets of those skeletons was deep and serene, emitting fluctuations not weaker than that of a Heavenly Immortal.

Wherever the Corpse Clan passed, the ground turned pitch black, with the already scarce, stunted ancient trees wilting away.

These dead spirits were relentlessly attacking the city walls, causing the deafening rumbling noises.

However, unsurprisingly, the attacking dead spirits were repelled by the city walls and sent flying back, only to attack once again.

Ao Qianchi watched this scene with a calm expression, as if he were used to it, and said, “Don’t bother with them; you go back to your cultivation.”

“No, I think this is a good opportunity for him to gain experience,” the Immortal Emperor Tianyuan suddenly appeared and spoke.

Ao Qianchi glanced at Immortal Emperor Tianyuan, a smile appearing on his face, and nodded slightly, looking at Li Cheng, “What do you think?”

Li Cheng looked at Immortal Emperor Tianyuan, then at Ao Qianchi, and realized that the two were old acquaintances.

He didn’t know that they had already met the last time he experienced enlightenment.

“No problem, the strongest are just at the complete Profound Immortal stage, no Golden Immortals, so it’s not stressful,” Li Cheng said with a smile.

Ao Qianchi smirked mysteriously, “Don’t jinx it!”

Li Cheng looked at Ao Qianchi, “Does Elder mean that the powerful ones are yet to come? Where do these dead spirits come from?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Cheng sensed spatial fluctuations tens of thousands of miles to the north, followed by numerous strong surges of deadly energy.

Clearly, these dead spirits had arrived via teleportation.

“The Land of Chaos, where space-time is in turmoil, space rifts can appear at any moment, and some of them lead to unknown worlds. Most of the foreign clans come from there,” Ao Qianchi also glanced in that direction before speaking.

Li Cheng understood; the Land of Chaos was a major threat to the Kunlun Realm!

But even the Grand Venerable Bai Jie might not be able to restore the space­time there; otherwise, it wouldn’t be left in such a state.

“The Bone Clan and Ghost Clan possess very pure Soul Power; you can collect some for him,” Ao Qianchi suggested.

Immortal Emperor Tianyuan’s remnant soul would eventually dissipate, and only a continuous supply of Soul Power could sustain it for a longer time.

Li Cheng was about to agree when he saw Immortal Emperor Tianyuan shaking his head, “It’s just a drop in the bucket; no need.”

“It’s better than nothing; I’ll do my best to collect it,” said Li Cheng, as he leaped down from the city wall, charging toward the dead spirits.

Ao Qianchi and Immortal Emperor Tianyuan stood side by side, watching Li Cheng as he plunged into the masses of dead spirits. Ao Qianchi said, “The Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture is indeed extraordinary, and why do I feel that his Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture is stronger than yours? Am I mistaken?” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan smiled without uttering a word. The first nine layers of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture he practiced were the same as those of Li Cheng, but from the tenth layer onward, they each completed their own. Initially, he had seen that the layer Li Cheng had completed was stronger than his!

Now, Li Cheng had cultivated up to the twelfth layer and was about to reach the thirteenth, indeed stronger than Immortal Emperor Tianyuan at that stage.

If Li Cheng used the Power of Laws, then there truly was no comparison.

“It seems dead spirits often invade, is it because the aura leaking from inside caused it?” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan changed the subject.

Ao Qianchi nodded and turned to look towards the Inner City, “Could the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture possibly solve the problem of the aura leak?”
